  • I agree with you in so far as the luddites were not enlightened ideological opponents to technology.

    While it’s true that it would be foolish to disregard history i don’t think the loom is analogous to generative AI, and the luddites aren’t really illuminating here.

    The evidence thus far is that the current generation of AI is an incremental improvement in productivity in the vast majority of industries.


  • Of course I don’t speak for Israel, or for any government. I never have. What I said in October 2023 is still exactly what I believe: Hamas is a terrorist organization. Palestinians deserve a future that honors their humanity and their aspirations. Protecting innocent life comes first, everywhere, and nobody should ever celebrate the death of a child. Anybody’s child. I’ve spent a decade as a UNICEF ambassador for kids who didn’t choose the country or the war they were born into, and I have grieved every one of them, on both sides of that fence. I didn’t do it from behind a screen; I went to those children and held them. I’m not going to litigate a complex war in an Instagram caption, and I’m not going to recite anybody’s slogan to earn back a follower.

    She certainly sounds like someone who thinks they’re an authority on oppression.
